Melissa Lohr

I'm a portrait and fine art photographer who resides in Pittsburgh PA. My photography is a depiction of how I see the natural world and all the mystery it holds. Sometimes bright and colorful in its beauty or dark and ominous, beautiful just the same. Although I do feel that I'm more drawn to what resides in the shadows. A dream like entity, something that's present but just out of reach. It lends to the viewers experience of what they choose it to be.
